Baldur's Gate Hints

What should I do after completing Durlag's Tower?

  • 1 of 17: Now that you have completed Durlag's Tower it's time to bring things to a conclusion.
  • 2 of 17: Time to return to Ulgoth's Beard.
  • 3 of 17: If you have the Soultaker Dagger, you will be welcomed by a group of cultists when you arrive. If not, go back and complete Durlag's Tower to get it from the Daemonknight.
  • 4 of 17: They will steal the dagger you promised to give to Hurgan Stoneblade.
  • 5 of 17: After you deal with the party, you should go talk to the dwarf.
  • 6 of 17: If you forgot, he is in the inn at (2368,524).
  • 7 of 17: He will tell you the dagger's deadly secret.
  • 8 of 17: Now you need to stop the cultists from completing their deadly task.
  • 9 of 17: They have a building somewhere in the town.
  • 10 of 17: It is at (1197,665).
  • 11 of 17: Go inside and deal with the goons.
  • 12 of 17: Then get ready for a really big fight.
  • 13 of 17: Go downstairs.
  • 14 of 17: You have just come in at the worst possible time -- the demon has been summoned.
  • 15 of 17: This thing will tear you apart on his strength alone, not to mention the fact he can use magic as well.
  • 16 of 17: My only suggestion is to cast Monster Summoning 2 or 3 to occupy the demon while you dispose of the cultists. Then attack it all out and cast as many Summon spells and healing spells as you can -- believe me, you need as many swords as you can get to bring this thing down.
  • 17 of 17: After bringing down the evil thing, go talk to Hurgan again.
